IHI.AND , Neb , , Doc. 21. To tbo
Editor of Tin : BIB : I occasionally hoar the
question nskod , in apparent sincerity , Will it
pay Nebraska to maUo nn exhibit nt the
World's fniri Ono might ns wall ask , "Will
It pay the merchant to ndvortiso his busi
ness ! " or "Will it pay the young lady wantIng -
Ing n Ocsirnbla husband to go to tn-j trouble
ondcxpunso of buying becoming attire nnd
nppuarini ; nttruotivol" or"Will it pay to levy
a tnx to cduc.ito the pcoplo , when to romniii
in Ignorance icqiilrcs no immcdinto oullnvl"
or "Will it pay n mun to kcop his fnco clean ,
when to tlo so requires alight outlay in
water tax and soap nnd some effort lu apply
ing the sumo ! "
Any nnd nil of these things will pay , nnd
pay well , in the long run. The merchant will
bo repaid in increased sales , the young lady
In u more deslrnblo husband ihnn slio would
otherwise bo Ilkrly to got , the people in m-
C'-oascd enlightenment , the precursor of nug-
mcntcd happiness , nnd in tlto application of
tnuro correct principles in government , nud
to the iiulividual in uer&oiml health nnd In-
cveabod respect of his follow men , two con
siderations which eniinot bo too highly prized.
Anil I answer most omphuticnlly yes. The
Nebraska exhibit nt the World's fair if prop
erly put up nndndvmitngcouslv managedwill
puy nil the people of the stnto llnanclallyund
pay well , too ; better than any investment of
u similar amount over miido by the stato.
Putting our population nt onlyn round
million , the appropriation of f.'W.UOO amounts
to only 5 cents for each inhabitant. Who
would begrudge dropping a nioklo In the
World's fair slot to see Nebraska's advan
tages proclaimed , nnd her producing capacity
proved by nn exhibition of her products i Ac
cording to olllclal figures of last census the
population of Nebraska is 1,053,010 , and the
oftlelnl ( Inures show the 1S1U assessed valua
tion of the stnto to bo JITT.'J-tyaW. ' so that a
person paying taxes on properly assessed ut
f 1,1X10 , would oo required to pay as his pro
portion of the World's fair uppruimation the
enormous sum of ii3 cents , or K cents
on an assessment of $500 , or $0.028 on a $100
assessment. Is there iv man In Nebraska so
tilggnriily as to begriuigo tl'ut sum expanded
for said purpose.
But I nm digressing you say , so I will re
turn to the q lojtlon proper ana u'.tomnt lo
show wherein It will pay , from a strictly
tlr.anclnl standpoint to ailvorllto this state.
First of all , lot mo stnrt out with the stnto.
inoni that tuo carefully estimated tuorngo
uttondanco al Iho world' * fair will bo CW,000 )
per day , or 7,500,000 per month , or un aggre
gate of000,000 for the six months during
which the exposition will bu kept open. This
represents a total number of visitors equal to
about three-fourths the on tire population of
the United Slates , and those visitor * will
como from every portion or tlio civilized
worjd , and very mnuy of Ihein will have In
mind un Idea of seeking n nv homes if they
are given ovidoneo of the existence or oppor
tunity to better tholr condition thoraby.
Wo have In this stntoiS.OOO.OOO acres of
lund , only about one-half of which is occupied
and tilled , having 24,000,000 acres waiting
only to bo tlculed with the plowshnro to bring
forth In abundance the wealth that brings
comfort to the stomach , satisfaction to the
bead and Joy to the soul , as well as Increased
substantial basis to the commonwealth.
Instead of supporting a population of
1,000,000 , Nebraska Is cap.iblo of supporting
moro than four ttmos that number , Dint these
now hero will bu all tbo bolter otf
for the IncivubO. Instead of an assessed
valuation of llTT.ttiS.JlUlJ as nt present ,
wo should have an assessed valuation ofmoro
than four times that amount nnd soon will
have if proper effort bo made to show to ( ho
world the superior resources of Nebraska ns
an agricultural stnlo , and her advantages as
a manufacturing state. It U a well known
fact that the lucreasod expense of state gov
ernment would nothing Ilko keep pace with
Ibe incrcaio lit wealth and population , so
there would- a saving In that respect ,
groilly overbalancing the cost of the effort
to bring the chntigo about , to snv nothing of
iho conicquonl Increased vnluo of real estate
nnd Increased activity In every avenue of
trade certain to follow. There \ < \ not a sec
tion in Nebraska in which Ihore is not room
for Increased Industries. There Is not n
county In the stale which could not with
great nd vantage double or quadruple Its pop
ulation.
There nro two ways In which to accom
plish Ibis rosull. Ono way Is to awnlt roiull
of natural laws , which Is nil very well In Its
wav , but somu times a very slow process.
The other wnv Is to thoroughly advertise llio
openings , Inducement * nnil prospects anil
support the advertisement by convincing
proofs In Iho form of producls. No ooller
time or pi a co will ever offer than during the
ticriodof ttio World's fair nt Chicago.

Moro Interesting news eoinoi from
Sioux FiillH , S. I ) , Biiyn ttio Now York
Tribune. It is to tlio olTout that iv cor-
ttilli Mrs. Nina Ilubbitrd ol Keil Bunk ,
N , J. . lias just been ( minted n divorce
from her husband , and that nho will in
feV days marry Oeorgo LJrown of Sioux
Falls. To the uninitiated , of course ,
tills docs not scorn Imuortant , but us it
iniirkri the beginning of the work of the
South Dakota Matrimonial Adjustment
company , il hi of the greatest import
ance.
The South Dakota Matrimonial Ad
justment company was incorporated un
der the Ituvs of that s-tato in September ,
and is empowered to do u general busi
ness in dissolving and contracting mar
riages. Its motto is "From Court to
Altar , " and it aims to suppiy every re
quisite for its client from the moment of
dissatisfaction with the existing ar
rangement till it throws an old shoo
after her as she goes to the carriage on
the arm of a second husband of course
furnished by the company. When a
'
woman llnds'out that her husband is a
brute , as she must sooner or
later , it being impossible to
fool the sex always. she has
simply to notify the now Adjustment
company and glvo herself no further un-
easiness. Of course , the company is
prepared to give equally satisfactory
service lo its male clients , though it ex
pects the bulk of its business from
women. Indeed , it is quite prepared to
take hold of the case for both husband
and wife when defence is made , or when
each desires to apply for relief and conduct
'
duct both eases toa'suecossful close.
Perhaps wo may ffcst make clear the
workings of tbo company by taking n
suppositions case and following it
through. Becoming convinced that she
wishes a divorce , the lady will "drop a
line to the nearest branch of the com
pany , with a small retaining feobalance
to bo deducted from alimony. She will
receive by return mail' a railroad and
sleeping-car ticket to Sioux Falls , with
Instructions ( printed ) to proceed there
immediately. Arriving at Sioux Falls ,
she will bo met at the btation by an affa
ble ronrcsonUith'o of the .company and
conducted to.a hotel. Iloro hot1 board
will bo paid for ninety days and
all of her wants attended lo.
During this time she may nmuso
horsolf'b'y looking ever the photographs
of tlio eligible members of the com
pany's stock on hand. Should she take
a fancy to any particular one and believe
that ho would perhaps make her a satis
factory second husbands , she may oven
see him in the hotel parfor , in the pres
ence , of course , of the company's
chaperon. The company will make a
specialty of young and middlp-agcdgon-
tlemen of moans , both native Dokota
nnd foreign stock. When the necessary
throe months' residence is completed
the company's attorney will begin the
court proceedings , place the alimony at
a suitable llgure , iiftroducoovidoncdpre
viously collected , and so forth. A satis
factory decree having been secured and
the lady hHving previously made 'ar
rangements with any member of the
company's eligible list , us it is hoped
that she shall in most cases , she will betaken
taken back to the hotel , where the com
pany's clergyman win DO in waiting
with the bridegroom , and where the
marriaso ceremony will be performed ,
best man. bride's maids , and even the"
ring being provided by the company.
Two entirely distinct sets of olllcials
will bo kept in the employ of the com
pany , so that , if it has been handling
the case of the lady's husband , his nup
tials may go on simultaneously with
those of his late wife.
Such a brief outline of tljp company's
plnn of action must necessarily bo in
complete , but wo believe that Iho reader
may get a fair idea of it from the fore
going. Experience may cause tlio com
pany to modify somn of the detail ? , but
wo believe that the changes will not bo
important. The Adjustment company
comes as a great boon to tlio
married , and otl'ors an encour
aging nnd cheering prospect
to tlio unmarried. Not the least
important to bo benefited are the young
men of South Dakota. In that now state
there is a serious luck of marriageable
young women , and tlio olTorts of this
company has _ already materially in-
croused the visible supply. Wo hope to
DO told that the Indies patronizing the
company select chiefly from the nntivo
stouk something they will never regret.
Mrs. Hubbard has done so , and set a
worthy example.

An hour distant from Hamburg Is the

enormous dining room , and photographs
of various members of the Bismarck
family , and of several of the prince's
colleagues , comprise the only art speci

Its grounds are extensive and beauti

upon which the vnluo nnd validity of the
patent depend , must , ba cnst to fully cover
the Invention yet not to oucroncli upon pat

prerequislto to the proper prosecution of n
case and a grant of a valuable patent.

Under the laws of the United States letters -
tors patent nro granted to any person who
has invented or discovered nuy new und use

of matter , or has invented any now or useful
improvement thereon.
TPMII of Patent.
A patent U granted for seventeen years ,
during which time the owner has solo nnd
exclusive right to make , use and sell the
patented invention.
How to Procccil.
Far economic reasons before uniting ap
plication to the patent ofllco for n patent ,
the novelty nnd patentability of the inven
tion should be uscortnincd , because , If the
nvctulon is not new or' not patentablo nn
unnecessary expense U incurred by llling nn
application on which a patent can never be
granted , etc.
The lirst thltii ? to bo done is to find out
whether or not the Invention Is now ana
paten table.
For advice on the point It is necessary to
send to the bureau a ront'li or complete
sketch or n photograph of the invention , to
gether with a brief description thereof ,
setting forth the object of the improve
ments , the nrrangomont of the parts and
the ndvnntages attained. While a model is
very seldom necessary , yet it is often of
great assistance. The latter can bo tnado of
nny cheap material , ai d will be returned if a
request is made to that elToet.
Upon receipt of the data mentioned suffic
ient to enable the invention to bo understood
our counsel will nt once oxumlno thoroiuto ,
and will advise without charge what is the
best course to pursue nnu will express an
opinion , from their knowledge of Iho arts
and patents already goantod , as to Iho patent
ability of the invention.
In this connection it is recommended that
the best und safest course is to have a
special search made in the patent oUlco to
ascertain whether or not the invention has
boon heretofore patented. Tno advantage of
such n search is that , it no anticipating patent
is discovered tbn application can be tiled with
a greater decree of cei'tninty. whorous if the
invention Is found to bo old all further ex
pense is avoided. The cost of n search of
this nature is J5 , and with the report of the
result thereof the inventor will bo furnished
with copies of such patents , if any , ns cm-
bruce his ideas. It is much bettor to have
this search made in tlio outset before incur
ring nny expeiiso whatever regarding the ap
plication for patent.
If it is found that the invention is new nod
patcutablo the client is advised to proceed
with the llling of nn application for patent ,
and will then be requested to remit $15
to cover the first government fee and
W in payment of co-.t of drawing , wtion ono
Is necessary. As soon as uossiblo after the
receipt of this remittance Iho spoitiflcatlon of
the invention will bo .carefully prepared
and forwarded totno inventor , together with
forms for application for patent ready for
execution , Upon return of the latter the case
will bo promptly Hied nt tbo patent ofllco and
notice will bo sent when action is had thoro-
on. nnd also of tbn nature of such action.
Tno examining corps of Iho patent oflico is
divided inlo thirty-two divisions , among
which the applications nro divided according
to the onicinl classilluaUoii. The condition of
the work in tho'vurious divisions varies iroui
ono to live months in arrears.
Tim Huron u Charges.
Consistent with the spirit with which this
bureau was formed , it is not Intended to
conduct any branch of the business on a
motley making basis , but it is proposed to do
the work as near the nctual cost as will pro-
tecl the business from loss. Although counsel
are retained at houv.v expeiiso to tbo bureau ,
yet it Is the wish to charge in ordinary cases
only the minimum fee of $25. However , in
cases requiring extra care , lime and labor
the fee will no proportionately increased , but
clients will always bo advised lu advance
should such increase of fee bo found neces
sary. In directing inquiries either to our
Omaha or Washington onico please mention

Intrrferciiurn.
An interference is a Judicial proceeding in
stituted under the direction of the commis
sioner of patents to enable htm to de
termine the question of priority of
Invention between rival claimants. The
bureau , recognising the fiiut that extraor
dinary care und skill nro requisite on the
port of nn attorney in charge of u case in In
terference. has nt Its command counsel ore-
pared to conduct u case in Interference from
the very Inception down to a llual determina
tion of the merits of the cnuso. Testimony
will nlso bo taken under our direction In nny
part of tlio United Stales. While no specific
sum can bn set down us applicable to nil In
terference cases alike , yet tbo charges will
always be ns reasonable us possible.
Inl'i iii
The question whether or not ono patent In
fringes another Is the very soul of all patent
litigation. The questions involved nro'mnny ,
and of the most intricate nature. It is al
ways n matter 01 such great Importance that
no ono should ever claim that another is in-
frinciug on his rights , or , likewise , no atten
tion should bo paid to the claims of infringe
ment by others until the questions involved
are carefully pnsscd upon by a reliable nt-
torney. For such services tbo charges uro
always fnir nnd reasonable.
Koivlftn P.itcnt ? .
In addition to the bureau's facilities for
attending to the interests of its inventor-pat
rons before the United States patent olllco
nnd courts , it Is also enabled to procure
patents for Inventions in nil countries
of the world. In many of tbo foreign coun
tries , notably Canada , Knirlund and Ger
many , patents for inventions previously
patented in this country are looked upon
with creat favor , and Inventors nro there
very frequently more likely to realise profits
from their Inventions tbun they nro even in
this country. The cost of foreign patents
varies with different cases , but as a general
rule the expanses of procuring patents , covering
oring all charges , is about ns follows :
Cnnnua , fcil ) ; England , S3J ; Germany , ? 9U ;
Franco , $ & > ; Spain , flR ) ; Belgium , $150. Au-
ultlonal information regarding the cost , etc. ,
in any foreign country will bo furnished by
letter on application. In nil such reouosts
mention huvinp read these instructions in

It seems remarkable that minis enlight
ened ago it becomes the duty of eVorv re
liable and trust vorthy attorney in patent
matters to udvise his clients to beware of
the many shams who sot out with the ap
parent intention of defrauding inventors
immouiatcly after the issue or their patents.
When a patent appears in the Patent Ofllco
Gazette patentees are beset with Innumer
able offers , solicitations , requests , etc. , some
pretending to war.t to purchase their patents ,
while others otter to take un interest therein
under promise of procuring foreign patents.
The solo object of these people U to obtain
money from inventors , nntl tboy never make
the slightest endeavor to carry out their
groundless or worthless promises.
Models.
As hereinbefore mentioned , models are not
required in the patent ofllce except in intri
cate or complicated cases. But at the same
time whBn an invention can bo hollar ex
plained by a moiiel il is well to send the same
to us. A model should always tm of n size
not Inrgcr than ono squara foot , nnd in send
ing the same by express the chargoi should

tecting n largo nurnbor of subscribers and

pears that many of the claimants do not understand

promising from ono-qunrtor to one-half the

gross inserted u provision in llio net annul-
ing all contracts nnd limiting the nsont'n
commission to 15 orltJ per cent.
The claimants nil probably undorstund that
the agent's commission has boon limited by
the law , but many of thorn , according to their
own statements , do not understand tl.ut Ihoy

the agent they hud first chosen. Thftv con-
sluor that they nro BWIl bound to employ the
